Meet Sonya

Rob wasn't too pleased, but I told him that the power of the purr is
bigger than he is. We picked up Sonya about an hour and a half ago.
Sonya is a gray and white tuxedo and ready to give birth at any moment.
Rob said that he'd rather not deal with a pregnant mum, but we are
needed for her and she is a little darling. She's very nervous,
needless to say, but has been placed in Mandy's bedroom. Mandy has been
given instructions and information on the care and feeding of a cat who
needs to be eating for five. I keep wanting to say seven, so do you
think I'm right and she'll have six kits? Poll here.

Anyway, Sonya is being fed kitten food. We have a warm bed ready for
her, and we know that the odds are that she'll reject the bed. We have
KMR and baby bottles ready for the kits, and are hoping that everything
goes like clockwork and we don't need them.

So, kitten poll. How many kits do you think Sonya is going to have and
when do you think she'll have them.

Awwww! I know you know, but find a dark spot (maybe the closet?) in Mandy's
room for her to birth the babies and get ready to pace the floor like a
worried meowmie. Rob will be pacing too, I just know it.

My bet is four kittens and sometime between midnight and dawn Monday
morning.

And Mandy will have a fit if she sleeps through it.

Try to keep her bedroom door closed so Mamma cat doesn't have too many
choices of where to drop the kittens. Might be a good idea to put the box
inside her closet with the door mostly closed.

Cat bed under Mandy's bed. There is no room in Mandy's closet for
anything. Cat is kept in Mandy's room 24/7, poor cat. Sonya has taken
possession of the underbed and has come out only to use her litter box,
so far. We're hoping that she relaxes before the big event.

Whoa! You got your "wish"! Purrs for Sonya and her unborn kits.
You're in trouble now, lady. lol I could never take in pregnant moms-
to-be when I was fostering. I just didn't have the time if sometime
went wrong. Purrs for you too, and have loads of fun with the lil
wons when they are born.

Pam, we will be purring and praying that Sonya's babies are all healthy and
that she doesn't have a hard time during birthing. You and Rob are kind
souls.
Jazz & his mama

Hey, you're better prepared than I was! Purrs that Sonya will rise to the
occasion and be a good, capable cat mama.
